Hi, Palmer,
I don't  understand well what's your meaning of "provide that
information to userspace", can you please clarify more?
And for this patchset, do we still lack something else? This patchset
is the first one for sg2042, but I don't see those issues you
mentioned would block it, becasue the target of this first patchset we
just want to make sure the kernel can boot up and work with a uart
console.

Thanks in adv.
Chen
